Mainu sochan diyan de geya saugatan
Sukh maahi naal le geya
Sukh maahi naal le geya
Naal dukhan de kara ke mulakaatan
Sukh maahi naal le geya
Mainu sochan diyan de geya saugatan Sukh maahi naal le geya
Naal dukhan de kara ke mulakaatan
Sukh maahi naal le geya
Mainu sochan diyan de geya saugatan

This is followed by the lines "Naal dukhan de kara ke mulakaatan/ Sukh maahi naal le geya," which express that in addition to joy, sorrow (dukkh) has also been encountered on this journey.
The final line, "Mainu sochan diyan de geya saugatan" serves to conclude the song, encapsulating the idea that life is a journey with both happy and sad moments.
Overall, the lyrics of Sukh Mahi Naal Le Gaya seem to be a reflection on the importance of embracing all aspects of life, both good and bad, in order to fully appreciate and understand the human experience.
